On Facebook... So there's a clear trail of who is planning what and who is agreeing to go along. People with long histories of posting far right content, so when they inevitably cry "but a leftist plant orchestrated all this" there is evidence to the contrary.

Only if FB wants there to be.

(And they don't. They've actively courted extremists since leaving campus.)

Nah, they'd give them up when the government shows up with cash.

Care saying "far right." On Lemmy some of the users will tell you that the Democratic party is "far right."

You don't need to agree with what they post but it should be protected under free speech. This isn't China

I also think people these days can't stand seeing anything they don't agree with. All people see is the stuff tailored to them and there is no discomfort
